How We Build

Principles guiding our development and maintenance.

Focused Scope

Do one thing well. DSO solves zero-persistence secret injection for Docker. We stay focused on that mission.

Code Quality

Small team means every line matters. We prioritize readability, testability, and maintainability.

Security First

Secrets are sensitive. We treat security as a core feature, not an afterthought.

Direct Feedback

Our users directly influence development. We listen to real-world use cases and pain points.

Small Team, Big Impact

DSO is maintained by a small, focused team. This means we can move quickly, make thoughtful decisions, and stay true to our mission. We're not building a platform for everyone — we're building the best zero-persistence secret injection tool for Docker.

Ecosystem & Integration

DSO integrates seamlessly with the tools you already use.

Not Limited to These

DSO works with any tool that can store secrets and any container runtime compatible with Docker. Check our documentation for provider-specific guides and integration examples.
